In my own experience, the people I respect the most and think about the most are the teachers who demanded the most discipline from their students. I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school. I think she was a good teacher because she was a very strict person. I remember very clearly a sign on her classroom door. It was a simple sign that said, “Laboratory in this room the first five letters of the word was st ressed not the last seven.” In other words, labor for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches. She prepared her work very carefully and told us to do the same. We got lots of homework from her. Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced, but it continued just the same. She checked our work by stamping her name at the bottom of the papers to show that she had read them. I think sometimes teachers who demand the most are liked the least. But as time goes by, this discipline really seems to benefit the students. 56. The teacher put up the sign on her classroom door . A. to remind the students that this room was a laboratory B. to advise the students to follow the disciplines C. to warn the students not to be careless D. to tell the students to work hard in the classroom 57. When the teacher’s arm was broken, she . A. gave her students the usual amount of homework B. gave her students less homework C. asked her students to check the homework themselves D. gave her students more homework 58. What’s the writer’s opinion of discipline? A. It makes the students dislike their teachers. B. It does good to the students in the long run. C. It’s too much for young children. D. It does more harm than good to the students. B My students often tell me that they don't have “enough time” to do all their schoolwork. My reply is often a brief “You have as much time as the president.”I usually carry on a bit about there being twenty?four hours in the day

for everyone，and suggest that “not enough time” is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done. Once in graduate school，I tried to prove to one of my professors by saying that I was working hard.His answer to me was ， “ That's irrelevant (无关的)．What's important is the quality of your work.”Since then I have had time to think carefully about the “hard worker” dodge (诀窍)，and I have come to some conclusions—all relevant to the problem of how much time we have. If you analyze the matter，you can identify two parts of the problem： There is，of course，the matter of “time”，which we can think of as fixed.Then there is the problem of “work” during that time.But，as my professor suggested，it's not how hard one works but the quality of the product that's important. That led me to a new idea：the quality of the work.That concept is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someone's office：“Don't work harder.Work smarter.”There is a lot of sense in that idea. If you can't get more time，and few of us can，the only solution is to improve the quality of the work.That means thinking of ways to get more out of the same time than we might otherwise get.That should lead us to an analysis of our work habits.Since “work” for students usually means “homework”，the expression “work habits” should be read as “study habits”． Then，as a smart student，you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study，chiefly reading and writing.If you learn to read better and write better，there are big benefits that pay off in all your studies. 59．From the passage，we know that the author is probably ________. A．a poet B．an educator C．a novelist D．an engineer 60．We can infer from the 2nd paragraph that we students still ________. A．have enough time B．can meet the president C．get everything done well D．should accept the explanation 61．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．The author's students make good use of their time to do all their homework. B．The author tried to tell the professor that he/she (the author) had done a good job. C．You can't improve the quality of the work if you can't get more time. D．You'll try to improve your skills in reading and writing if you're a clever student. 62．What's the passage mainly about? A．Students don't have enough time. B．Don't work harder；work smarter.

C．No one can get more time. D．Read better and write better. C What Is a Boy? Between the innocence of babyhood and the seriousness of manhood we find a delightful creature called a “boy”．Boys come in different sizes, weights, and colors, but all boys have the same belief to enjoy every second of every minute of every hour of every day and to fill the air with noise until the adult males pack them off to bed at night ． Boy are found everywhere – on top of, under, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around, or jumping to ．Mothers spoil them, little girls hate them, older sisters and brothers love them, and God protects them．A boy is TRUTH with dirt on its face．BEAUTY with a cut on its finger, WISDOM with chocolate in its hair, and the HOPE of the future with a snake in its pocket． When you are busy, a boy is a trouble-maker and a noise．When you want him to make a good impression, his brain turns to jelly, or else he becomes a wild creature bent on destroying the world and himself with it．A boy is a mixture – he has the stomach of a horse, the digestion of stones and sand, the energy of an atomic bomb, the curiosity of a cat, the imagination of a superman, the shyness of a sweet girl, the brave nature of a bull, the violence of a firecracker, but when you ask him to make something, he has five thumbs （拇指） on each hand He likes ice cream, knives, saws, Christmas, comic books, woods, water （in its natural habitat）, large animals, Dad, trains, Saturday mornings, and fire engines．He is not much for Sunday schools, company, schools, books without pictures, music lessons, neckties, barbers, girls, overcoats, adults, or bedtime． Nobody else is so early to rise, or so late to supper．Nobody else gets so much fun out of trees, dogs, and breezes．Nobody else can put into one pocket a rusty knife, a half eaten apple, a three-feet rope, six cents and some unknown things． A boy is a magical creature – he is your headache but when you come home at night with only shattered pieces of your hopes and dreams, he can mend them like new with two magic words, “Hi, Dad!” 63．The whole passage is in a tone of ． A．humor and affection B．respect and harmony C．ambition and expectation D．confidence and imagination 64．Could you figure out the meaning of the underlined sentence? A．He has altogether five fingers． B．He is slow, foolish and clumsy． C．He becomes clever and smart． D．He cuts his hand with a knife． 65．According to the writer, boys appreciate everything in the following

A．He feels curious about their noise． B．He is fed up with these creatures． C．He is amazed by their naughtiness． D．He feels unsafe staying with them． D Chinese star Yao Ming has retired. Yao made it official Wednesday, telling a news conference that a series of foot and leg injuries forced him to end his playing career at the age of 30. “I will formally end my career,” said Yao, who became a household name in China before starting his NBA career with the Houston Rockets in 2002. Yao played eight seasons in the NBA. “Today is an important day for me and holds a special meaning for both my basketball career and my future,” Yao said. “I had to leave the court since I suffered a stress fracture（断裂）in my left foot for the third time at the end of last year. My past six months were a painful wait. I have been thinking about my future over and over. Today I am announcing a personal decision, ending my career as a basketball player and officially retire. But one door is closing and another one is opening.’’ Yao said he would return to work with his former Chinese team, the Shanghai Sharks, with the possibility of becoming general manager. He already owns the club and wants to contribute more. “My playing career started with the club. I hope I can do something for it,” Yao said. He later appeared with his family on the stage to the applause and cheers of the crowd. He thanked a lot of people — his family, former coaches, even players like Shaquille O’Neal — “for making me a better player.” Rockets general manager Daryl Morey was among those attending the farewell ( 告别 ) conference Wednesday. Morey made the long trip from Houston. Morey said 20 hours on planes was tiring but “I would be sorry if I wasn’t here.” “It’s a big moment,” Morey added. “Yao had a sense of humor, a great attitude and sense of responsibility. I hope we can continue his culture in the NBA.” 67. Yao Ming has retired from basketball because of _____. A. his age B. his bad conducts on the court C. his foot and leg injuries D. his poor health 68. Yao Ming was _____ before he decided to end his career as a basketball player.

Well, my advice is that first you practice speaking Chinese every day for at least 15 minutes, and learn some everyday Chinese by heart. Then, it is a must to learn to some easy tapes, say, for 20 minutes every day, till one day you think it’s time for more difficult ones. As for writing, doing simple readings as much as you can and taking some possible notes will be of much help. Besides, writing something in Chinese every day, such as keeping diaries, will greatly improve your writing skills as well as the way you think in Chinese. Hoping they will do some good to your Chinese learning Best wishes! Yours Li Hua
